Thunderdome Sweet Thunderdome Embroidery

Embroidery

Combining my love of cult movies, specifically the 1985 Mad Max classic Beyond Thunderdome, and my growing desire to work embroidery into my design and art, I created this nod to the classic "Home Sweet Home" stitching of yore. This "cheeky" play on a classic quote has been floating in my head for some time now and I was excited to get the thread to fabric and make it come alive. Little did I know how long embroidery actually takes. This project was an education in the lost art of just slowing down and making something by hand.
